Five-Year National Evaluation, Volume 1: School Level Report

This is the technical report of the School Level Quasi‐Experimental Study conducted as part of the five-year national evaluation.

Using a highly rigorous and sophisticated matching technique, Communities In Schools campuses in seven states were matched with comparable non‐Communities In Schools campuses and analyses were undertaken to compare school‐level outcomes. The report also contains the results of the Natural Variation Study, designed to determine what key attributes separate the most successful Communities In Schools campuses from the schools that did not report success on a given outcome.
